Awesome Rom

Hi All,

I wanted to say this is an Awesome rom! I switched over from Simply Honey 5.1 with Talon kernel, which was extremely stable for my phone.

I started with Passion v9.2 and have loved it ever since. I'm currently on v10.6 running Eugene's ICUP kernel and have been getting awesome battery life. My usage vary's from light texting and web browsing to moderate gaming and tethering my tablet or laptop. So far, I've been able to run all of my standard apps without any problems.

This is an excellent daily driver, and I can't wait to see how it develops further. Thanks again Neo and All who have contributed to it, for all of your hard work!!

Here are a few screenshots showing my battery usage and how deep sleep has been working.

Cheers,

Trivial

I've been getting a few random reboots today, noted that I did really heavy use today.

[Vibrant Android Development] Goten310:
This low storage notification is killing me. I've read through most of the thread and understand the issue. I've moved most of my apps to SD and currently only using 139mb according to the system settings but I did that before and kept freeing up as much space as I can but every time I do that the low storage notification would pop up again. What is causing it keep giving me this message.

It can't be my apps can it? I keep uninstalling apps and moving apps to SD to keep the storage low but I would still get the warning followed by crazy force closes. I only sync my Gmail for 1 day thinking that would help but no dice. Anyone have any input in this issue. At this rate I will keep taking out apps until I have none and it would still give me a low storage warning I bet.
[Vibrant Android Development] Nabeel10:
yea the ROM keeps thinking that and its annoying, but for me, all you have to do is got to Manage Apps->All->scroll till you see Media Storage app->Clear Data

and the notification will clear instantly. though, your photos and music will not be recognized thru gallery and music player, but they will still be on your sd card.

For some weird reason Battery Calibrator started giving me an error message saying I needed to root my device, any suggestions? I had already went thru two battery cycles and calibrated each time so I don't understand why I'm getting this message now

Anyone having problems with the music showing up multiple times? I have like 7 gigs on the external cd card and since I've upgraded to this rom each song shows up 7 times. Only 1 album and artist. I've tried 3 different players. Any ideas?
[Vibrant Android Development] nedlog:
This has happened to others, so I would search the thread for the answer. I believe you need to wipe media storage, and then unmount and mount your sd card.

If you're asking if this ROM uses that, the answer is yes.

I have a feature question/request

Cyanogen 7 had a power control app that was highly customizable and allowed you to put many different on/off buttons in the widget. I particularly loved the data on off which allowed me to turn off my data on a homescreen rather than the settings.

Is this something that's available or could be available?
[Vibrant Android Development] megatherian:
The current work around is to reboot and use the GPS immediately. Once your phone goes to sleep you won't get GPS again until you reboot again.

(I used tasker to automate the reboot and start up my GPS app when I want to use it)

Please Please SOMEONE HELP. :/ I already triple tried and checked both APN's that come with this ROM. :(

Have you looked to see exactly what is taking up the space in /datadata ?

Try using Terminal Emulator (it's in the Market if you don't have it already), type:

df

and see how much free space you have in /datadata

Then:

su
du -s /datadata/* | sort -n

and it will show how much space each folder in /datadata is using

things that don't work right

I of course understand that this is a beta rom, and if things don't work right I should not be complaining (and I'm not). What I am curious about (or actually hoping) is that I just didn't install it right, and thats why I am seeing these problems.

I have recently upgraded from the teamwhiskey 1.3.1.

can someone clarify why I am having these issues?

bottom buttons are very slow in response, or sometimes unresponsive.

I am seeing lag often enough,, and the dialer has crashed a few times.

Also, google maps is missing.

I'd very much appreciate help with fixing these things because I'm sure there's something I've screwed up on.

Oh... one last thing - anyone know why there's no timer in clock anymore?

Thanks!

I just flashed this rom, just to check it out, and it's beautiful. But I have one question... In the camera app there is an option to switch to FFC. I don't have a FFC and don't need this option..

...How do I remove this FFC button in the camera app?
[Vibrant Android Development] papa.steve:
Mr SmileyJr

Not to be nasty but from Page 1.

Follow instructions to the letter

You Need Gingerbread Bootloader for once if you coming from custom ROM:

If you are on any Froyo Custom Rom, install CM7 first and then install GB Bootloader

Bootloader is needed to avoid Rainbows which are COLOR SPLASHES on the screen seen during boot.

Find GB Bootloader HERE. Flash Bootloader at your OWN RISK.

Installation Steps for those coming from ICS Passion v10 onwards:

Uninstall/Disable any root tool which configures kernel or changes frequencies on boot. You can install/enable later after upgrade.

Reboot in Recovery

Flash the file.

Reboot. Let it settle. Enjoy.

Installation Steps for those coming from other ICS versions or CM7 or MIUI:

Reboot in Recovery

Goto MOUNTS & STORAGE >> FORMAT SYSTEM

Wipe Data / Factory Reset

Flash the file. You may need to flash file twice if there is bootloop due to CWM version mismatch.

Reboot.

Reboot once again after you see everything settled and you are on your homescreen.

NOTE: If you get in boot loop during first install, DONT panic.

Remove battery. Hold Vol Down + Home + Power Key. You will enter new recovery mode. Flash the ROM again.

Some users (having Froyo Bootloader) need to press Vol Up Key instead of Home Key to get in Recovery.

For those who are new to flashing or on Vibrant stock ROM (Eclair)

and don't wish to undertake risky approach of flashing Bootloader, see this video:

Click Here

For those who are coming from custom non-ICS ROMs:

Reboot in recovery (CWM)

Wipe Data/ Factory Reset.

Format SYSTEM from Mounts and Storage.

Flash the file.

It will most probably go in boot loop due to CWM version mismatch.

Remove battery. Insert it.

Press Vol Down + Home + Long press power till Gingerbread bootloader appears and vanish

(or press Vol Down + Vol Up + Long press power till Froyo bootloader appears and vanish)

You will enter in CWM mode, if not do repeat above two steps

Now follow instructions of CM7/MIUI/ICS. Wiping Data again after this may give bootloop. So skip wiping data step.
[Vibrant Android Development] N00B_IN_N33D:
^ Wait, are you answering my question? 'Cause that doesn't really help me remove the Front Facing Camera button from the camera app.

Edit: Nevermind. I see you were talking to Mr SmileyJr.
[Vibrant Android Development] Saint787:
Camera is missing a lot. There is no way to zoom and most settings are missing. It should be the least of your concerns to have an unused button there.

Give it sometime I am sure someone will work on it.

Anyone have success with OC? I tried it on my phone up to 1.4 with no reboot issues for the day, stopped OCing because of battery drain was pretty bad, but anyone have settings they use for UV?
[Vibrant Android Development] mmfxda:
google backup restore.

Whenever I flash a popular rom such as cm7/MIUI and login to my Google account, Google reinstall all the apps I had before and reapplies all the old system settings automatically.

Thant doesn't happen with this rom. Not sure if this is a bug with this rom, since I had seen it before in other roms. But if it can be fix that would be great. It should also help with bugs due to restored apps from backup.

Also, I have skype running on wifi all the time and the battery only lasts for 6-7 hours max. Any thoughts?

Thanks
[Vibrant Android Development] krntehknik303:
Yeah, that's how it is for me as well.. Also, when I have new numbers saved through google account it doesn't seem to save my contacts. Is that because I don't have it syncing?
[Vibrant Android Development] citricguy:
Juice Defender with the default settings doubles my battery life. Awesome ROM. Using it daily with all the important stuff working as it should.
[Vibrant Android Development] androidmonkey:
"battery calibration" apps do nothing. A Google dev debunked this myth last week.

Do you have a plain gmail account or a GApps for domain account?

Ive used my Gapps for domain account since the G1 launched and always had my gmail, contacts, and calendar sync with no issues on all my Android hardware. If you dont have sync enabled on your phone, then it wont sync. Do you see these contacts when you are logged into Gmail via web browser?

People are reporting about instability over 1.0.

[Vibrant Android Development] androidmonkey:
As far as battery life on this ROM, it varies GREATLY depending on what apps you have installed and which sync, etc.

I was getting 7-9 hours battery life on v3-v8. I flashed v10 yesterday and I currently have 41% battery left and its been running for 17h 25m 22s !! I use to think that people where BSing when they said they got 12-24 hours of battery life. Now I understand how. I bet if I start installing my apps like FB, Maps, etc, the battery life will go down again.
[Vibrant Android Development] krntehknik303:
I'm not too sure but I will double check. And get back to you on that.
[Vibrant Android Development] scaldaferri:
Could you please post the link to the source of this information?

For me, Juice Defender did nothing for my battery, but used more RAM than just about anything else. I'm glad it's working for you!

---------- Post added at 10:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 PM ----------

That never happens with me. But I see that you've listed V8 as your ROM. You should get V10.6. Lots of fixes, smooth as silk.

---------- Post added at 10:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:10 PM ----------

+1 on the duplicate song entries. I've tried that, clearing media storage, then unmounting and mounting my SD card. It works for a while, then the problem comes back. Each song shows up twice, then up to eight times, over a period of days. I wonder if it's because I keep all my music on my external SD card.
[Vibrant Android Development] krntehknik303:
Agreed, juice defender seems to use up more space than rather save my battery. guess its just my phone.
[Vibrant Android Development] theking_13:
JuiceDefender just shuts down your data connection when you turn off the screen, and when the battery gets low. You'll get better battery life by turning off Mobile Data yourself

[Vibrant Android Development] s13epy:
Ice Cream LOVE!!

Flashed Passion v10.6 coming from MIUI Lithium Voltage 1.1 about 2 week ago and everything's running smooth as Ice (;

Loving ICS. Browser is kind of buggy when browsing through Fb and sometimes other websites like some online videos won't output visual just sound.

And of course the keypad input/ mute unmute isn't working for me either.

Everything else is great though can't complain :D

I wanna thank everyone who put their ounce of knowledge into this ROM and it's future.

Keeping my Vibrant alive since 2010 :cool:
[Vibrant Android Development] TheContinental:
Yes, Google Maps will be missing when you install this ROM. Just re-download from the Market and install. (Or, from Titanium Backup if you did a backup there.) Don't forget to re-install Street View from Google Maps if you want that. Navigation will install along with Google Maps, so you don't have to get that separately.
[Vibrant Android Development] topgun1984:
Awesome ROM but...

I have been using this ROM for last 3 days and it is amazing. Its very slick and totally lag-free. Everything is spot on. Battery is so far average but trying to up it with juice defender and setCPU. Way better than my laggy froyo. I just have a couple of issues in mind

The vibration while swiping unlock - It is very annoying that such a good OS does not have the option to turn off vibrate on unlock considering android's customizability. Though we can install GoLocker widgets for turning it off I would be very happy if there is a way to turn it of from the OS settings. -(I have searched the net for this for hours and couldnt get a solution except to install widgets. If there is a solution for this please let me know.)

The full screen caller id is not working properly. Whenever a call comes the caller photo is cut in half and when I attend the call the full screen is displayed. Is there any way to get around this?

Thanks a lot for NeObuddy and team for this excellent piece of software. God bless!
[Vibrant Android Development] Ventus_zx:
I HATE the lock screen problem. Sometime the f***ing screen wont respond and now its really starting to irritate me. Alot. Please tell me how to fully fix this.
[Vibrant Android Development] airhop7:
I'm using Eugene's kernel and it seems to went away try that kernel for now until v11 comes
[Vibrant Android Development] Zeej:
There are a few solutions. Try changing your min CPU to 200 or 400 with setCPU.

If you don't want to play with that, you can disable wifi, since wifi causes the lock up to begin with.

Personally, turning off the wifi has worked best (and makes the battery last longer).

PS: I'm on Eugene's kernel at 400 min and still get a temporary freeze when unlocking with wifi on.

I switched to Eugene's ICS kernel and it solved a lot of the problems I had with this ROM. I also uninstalled NFC.apk with Titanium because I noticed in logcat it was continually trying to start and failing as long as the phone was turned on(we have no NFC support in our phones anyway). Initially after I removed it I thought I might need to reinstall cuz the phone locked up with an error msg on screen about it being missing, but after a reboot it seemed fine. Also Neo should remove TelocationProvider in the next build, it isn't needed if you aren't in China.

Oh, almost forgot, my notification drop down still isnt being themed. Anyone know how to fix this?

---------- Post added at 06:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:37 AM ----------

Try Eugene's ICS kernel, completely fixed my screenlock & deep idle/sleep issues. Well, that & removing NFC

LOL wasn't paying attention & thought this was the Miui thread, had both open. Pay no attn to me then. ;-)

Are you using Passion 10.6? I don't see NFC or Telelocation Provider on Titanium Backup.
[Vibrant Android Development] johnnycs:
This ROM is great. I was surprised how well ICS runs on our "designed for GB" Vibrants (sarcasm). Anyway, I don't know if anyone in the thread might be able to help but when I was running a 2.2 rom, it supported the EDT Tweaks app. There was a lockscreen menu in the app that could be used to select alternative lockscreens, or disable the lockscreen. When I selected no lockscreen, it successfully disabled my device administrator required lockscreen, and the admin app still thought the lockscreen was enabled since the android settings still had "Pin" lockscreen selected and a pin code was set.

Does anyone have any idea how I could accomplish the same thing in ICS? I checked the EDT Tweaks app already and the lockscreen menu is greyed out. Any ideas? I've tried all the usual "no lock" type apps in the market, but they all don't work with device administrator policies. I've also tried Tasker's keyguard disable option, but it didn't work. Thanks in advance for any advice!

When i play real football or any game after 1 or 2 minutes the app crash..

The sound is low in this rom i dont know why but when i tried another ICS{like Onecosmic's ICS_4.0.3.0(RC2.11)} rom i felt this roms sound volume is half of them.

can anyone give me a solution please.....i really loved this rom and i had no issues without these.....so please help me to stick with this....:rolleyes:
[Vibrant Android Development] amblingaardvark:
As far as the game, are you restoring them from a titanium backup or something else or downloading them straight from the marketplace? All the games I have tried work quite well.

With the volume, if you need it louder, there is an amp control under the Voodoo Control App that will allow you to boost your volume. Hopefully enough for your needs, just be careful boosting it and playing it through the speaker on the phone, don't want to hurt it by over driving it too much...
